[QUOTE]Originally posted by blueoval55: [QB] i always tell people to do the 20 minutes at 2,000 rpm just like you would a flat tappet cam. gets everything lubed when first fired. after that, go beat on it! but really no break in is necessary, but it cant hurt. roller lifters only oil the needle bearings in the roller end through splash & windage, unless you get solid rollers with pressure feed. never seen a hydraulic cam wear or "flat spot" unless the lifter fails. solid rollers with alot of spring pressure do wear, but not flat spot, they get what is called "tracking" where there is a small amount of wear evenly on the nose of the lobe.
